Chinanews, May 10, according to Euronet, citing a report by the Greek Eunice News Agency, on the 9th local time, the Greek Ministry of Health released data that the country has added 1,428 new confirmed cases of new crowns and 51 new deaths.

Data map: Greece under the epidemic.

  According to reports, the social theme summit of EU countries was held in Porto, Portugal on May 7 and 8. The goal is to promote the construction of better social protection in Europe after being hit by the new crown epidemic.

  In an interview with media reporters after the meeting, Greek Prime Minister Mizotakis called on EU countries not to take quarantine measures against tourists returning from Greece.

  He said that everyone hopes that summer travel can proceed as smoothly as possible, and for the Greek government, this means not to set too many restrictions on tourists returning from a holiday in Greece.

Mizotakis also reiterated that the Greek government hopes to quickly activate the "digital green certificate" so that EU citizens can travel to other countries immediately.

  According to reports, the United Kingdom announced a list of 12 safe travel destinations on May 7, including Portugal and Israel.

Greece is not on this list, which means that British travelers must undergo a 10-day compulsory quarantine after returning to the UK from Greece.

  On the other hand, from May 10, Greek kindergartens, preschools, elementary schools, junior high schools and high schools will return to school normally under the premise of conducting self-test twice a week, and nurseries will not be reopened until May 17.

  According to the school opening guidelines issued by the Greek Ministry of Education, students need to wear a mask in addition to having a negative self-test certificate for the virus when entering the school.

Schools need to take strict epidemic prevention measures, including regular opening of windows for ventilation, preparation of disinfectant hand wipes, daily cleaning of classrooms, setting up different schedules for class and rest for students, and avoiding gatherings.

  In addition, this school year will be appropriately extended. Junior high and high schools will end the school year on June 11, and kindergartens and elementary schools will end the school year on June 25. Students in all grades will not take final exams.

The national college entrance examination will be held from June 14.

The new school year in autumn will probably start on September 10.
